Now, this cosplayer has brought the Galar region gym leader to life. Since the beginning of the Pokemon saga fans all over the world have taken to cosplaying their favorite characters. Whether it\u2019s gym leaders, anime characters such as Ash or Team Rocket, or even the Pokemon themselves, the game has inspired a vibrant cosplay culture. One cosplayer recently unveiled her amazing Marnie outfit, bringing the generation eight Dark-type gym leader to life. Galar\u2019s gym leaders have become popular choices for cosplayers across the globe, and another fan has won the cosplay badge for this awesome costume. Water-type leader Nessa is the character of choice, and she\u2019s just as formidable in real life as her virtual counterpart. A post from Reddit user and cross-cosplayer Chrono-1080 (Akasha) shows him taking the plunge and creating an awesome Nessa cosplay. Seen sporting the gym leader\u2019s iconic blue swimming shorts and bralet, Akasha is seen posing in a similar style to the Galar icon, with equal amounts of poise and a don\u2019t mess with me style attitude. What\u2019s more impressive though is his hair. Nessa\u2019s iconic, ocean blue hair with gentle aqua streaks has become iconic, and Akasha is really channelling this ocean fantasy. Seen with the lighter highlights all tied up in a bun just like the Pokemon mistress herself, this cosplay really nails it. Fans react Fans are also really loving this real life version of Nessa. One fan commented on Akasha\u2019s physique, which clearly stands out in the photo.

I am jealous of your glorious biceps!\u201d It\u2019s awesome to see a new take on Galar\u2019s water-type gym leader, and the reception to Akasha\u2019s work has been amazing. We\u2019d love to see some more Pokemon cosplays from him in the future, or maybe that Korra one that everyone is pushing for in the comments!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pokemon Sword &#038; Shield cosplayer is making waves as Nessa Instagram: akashaa_cosplay, Nintendo Inc.Pokemon Sword and Shield is filled to the brim with awesome characters, but Water-type gym leader Nessa is a fan favorite.
